I know there is a law in the European Union, and I think USA too, that

Some privacy provider services claim to only keep logs for one or two
weeks, or even none, what bugs me is, is there any law that forces them to
keep logs for a certain amount of time too? What I mean is that if someone
abused their services and the police went around knocking their door one
month later, is there any legal implication for the company/owner of the
machine used to break the law?
As far as I know a privacy provider isn't an ISP, so any rules about an ISP
don't apply. The offshore providers don't even keep any identifying
information about their users on any server anyway, and most would shut
down or move a server if logs became an issue in any way.
